We are acutely aware of  own pain, but rarely do so in relation to other people. "None of my pain," "Self comes to the body," and so on .... all this folk "wisdom" as it shows a confirmation of the "truth" ... .and many people happily live to old age, confessing these principles.

This blog was created for people who want to help. This blog is for people who want to make the world a better, fairer, happier for themselves and for other persons

The important thing - it's human truth, the essence of being, but not popular "wisdom", which is the indifference and laziness.

Themis and Maat.

A lot of  countries, including the Russian Federation are a symbol of justice. This is a statue of Themis, who have  differently image . Themis has not  seen  nothing . We only know that in one hand she holds the scales in the other a sword. Themis  has the  blindfolded. This is  symbolizing impartiality. This  image   Themis received  from  Romans. Romans  borrowed from the Greeks her image as a Justice. Romans invested in her right hand a sword instead of a cornucopia, initially as she did not have and bandages. It mean, she has only  scales and cornucopia. That is the image of the goddess is changing and borrow.

There is the interesting fact. During the reconstruction of the building of the Supreme Court of Russia over the entrance to the complex from the Big Rzhevsky alley was a sculpture of Themis. The face of  Themis has  no blindfolded - a symbol of impartiality. This image has  the  critical articles in the press, in addition to her hand shield, not a sword or a horn abundance.

Libra - an ancient symbol of action and justice. On the scales of justice weigh the good and evil deeds committed during the life of mortals. Posthumous fate of people depended on which outweigh the bowl.

In this time,  a lot of persons  is forgotten goddess of antiquity - Maat. She is from ancient Egypt, and she  also takes part in the court where installed - scales, and has a bandage. Headband Maat is located on the head and support an important attribute of the court - the pen. It is a pen and write the judge's decision depends on the fate of persons.

We know the words in  the Russia :  “ execute   must not  pardon”   . You can hear these words, but do not understand their meaning. But if they are written and put a sign - a comma, the meaning of the words is clear to everyone.

Execute,   must not  pardon - and man will dies………

execute   must not  , pardon - and a person is saved!

The age of the Egyptian Maat significantly older than the Roman and Greek Justice Themis, it can be assumed that ancient peoples could take for yourself some of the outward signs of Maat (eg, scales, dressing) to create an image of the goddess

Maat - Goddess of truth, order and justice

Maat (Ammaat) - Ancient Egyptian Goddess, representing truth, justice, law, bestowed by God the Creator of the universe during the creation of the world, universal harmony, a divine institution, and ethical standards. Maat  has image  of a seated woman with an ostrich feather on her head, sometimes winged. She was the daughter of the sun’s God Ra and  she was the  wife of the God of wisdom. His name is  Thoth. The people of Egypt rightly believed that truth and wisdom - is a good pair. According to tradition, like the other gods, winged Maat in primeval times lived  among puples. But after,  she follow his father Ra to heaven, because the sinful nature peoples dos’n like her.

 The principle of Maat includes both the correctness and regularity of the universe, and social cohesion and the  most importantly, the responsibility of the king (Pharaoh, Emperor, President) and mere mortals for their actions. In addition, the goddess was associated with efficacy of the  spoken words.

  Sacred insect Maat - bee,  and the solar material  is the  wax, which  dedicated to the goddess and her father. The title "priest of Maat"  has the  grand vizier, who was also a chief judge and wore a golden image of the goddess on his chest as a sign of their special status. Maat is one of the most important actors Psihostasii or underworld court, during which her statue or emblem - ostrich feather is a counterbalance to the heart of the deceased on the great scale, established before the throne of Osiris.

In addition, its image is often crowned themselves scales. Even the hall, which is the measure of the sins of the heart of the deceased, called "Halls of Two Truths (IAATO)." In addition, it is worth mentioning that Osiris was the judge of the underworld, where the heart of the deceased was weighed in the balance with pen Eternal Truth and Order of Maat. If a person's heart outweighed feather of Maat, his heart devoured a monster.

Throughout its long history, in all their actions were guided by the ruler of Egypt laws of universal harmony. These laws embodied in the image of the winged goddess. Maat - it is the truth and justice, prudence, order, unity and harmony.

Maat lives in the human heart and in life after death. Maat - omnipresent. Maat - food of the gods, without which they can not live. But people also live because of it. Without Maat they lose the meaning of life and the way leading to immortality. Follow the laws of Maat - is not just an obligation, the core of existence, the need of the heart. It is the duty of honor and life.

Ma'at - Goddess of truth, order and justice. These words have a hidden meaning.

But how often, in our modern world is broken the law, and judges, following the order (meaning proceedings), endure unjust decisions. Even the laws in different countries sometimes quite unfair to certain categories of the population.

In ancient times, when Egypt to observe the established divine laws, it was a rich and happy country, which were just laws. Anyone even low origin - a farmer or artisan - if he wanted to learn, to acquire knowledge, could become a priest. Society of Ancient Egypt was more true for women. They had the right to own property, to inherit after the death of relatives and even (!) To be the Pharaoh! There are several names of women - the rulers of ancient Egypt! No country in the ancient world, except Egypt, this fact can not boast!

Maybe it's time to remember the principles of the ancient goddess Maat and begin to live according to the laws of truth, order and justice?
